Perfect location

Lovely relaxed site, a small peaceful respite from the city, but perfectly located to explore Bristol. Friendly staff, spotlessly clean toilets and showers, everything you need in the right place. Hopefully it can continue to operate in its current location. Thank you!

Go while you still can!

Despite heavy rain we enjoyed another trip to this fantastic location in the heart of Bristol. The warden maintains the facilities to a first class standard and is very cheerful and helpful. There are not many sites in such a unique location - the current extension to the lease may(?) be extended again, but sooner or later it will close so if you've not been before - try it this year before it's too late!

WARDENS

There's nothing to add with regards to what everyone else says about Baltic Wharf. Location, Bristol amenities and shopping etc. Cleanliness and general upkeep at the site. However, having just spent four nights ther, I was totally impressed by the wardens on site, they were extremely pleasant to talk to and always on hand for directions/advice, they were clearly hard working - the facilities were immaculate, and their general demeanour and attitude was exemplary. Clearly they were customer focussed and, in my opinion a credit to themselves above all. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable. On a totally different note, forgive me if it's been mentioned elsewhere, but every time you enter the city, the clean air charge is payable at £9.00 for relevant vehicles. we travelled 2.4 miles in the zone to reach the site and the same distance on leaving, which equates to £18.00 extra on your site fees. I do feel that the club should be making members aware of this PRIOR to accepting and bookings.

Here again.

Always good to return here.yet another extension to closing date.long may site continue !! Still ongoing roadworks outside site but not a problem while we were there. Pleasant wardens warm toilet block and hot water.what more could you want ?? Harbouring has plenty of flats for sale and Council should give up on daft idea of closing this site which is an asset to the city.plenty of visitors spend plenty of money in the shops and pubs. Looking forward to next trip when hopefully won't have as much rain.

Well Worth A Visit.

We’ve been wanting to try the Baltic Wharf site for some time. On the old booking system it seemed to be one of those popular ones that were always fully booked, then came the notices of closure due to redevelopment of the area by the local authority. However, the club notified me by email that the lease on the site had again been extended until December 2023 and so I attempted to book as an extension to our stay at the Four Oaks site at Henley on Thames. Bingo! We were in. We took the M4 from Henley to Bristol, and other than a slightly complicated final mile or so through Bristol City centre with its roadworks, we landed safe and sound. I can confirm it is a site well worth visiting. A gate out of site onto the riverside walk either into the city, or next door to the pub. Fantastic history surrounds you and all is very well documented on boards. Plenty of easy access to pubs, restaurants, cafés or whatever you want. Our stay in February was blessed with beautiful sunny weather and clear blue skies too. No issues at all with the services and friendly helpful staff. Our camper van is 6.4 metres long, and I would say this is around a maximum for easy access through the roadworks, with some pitches also restricted to this as a maximum length. But all in all, very highly recommended.

Great Site

What a shame this site is closing at the end of March. Fantastic position to walk around the Floating Harbour and to walk up to the Clifton Suspension Bridge. We parked up on Saturday and never used our campervan until our return on Wednesday. Bristol Cathedral and St. Marys Redcliffe are a must, such magnificent buildings. Baltic Wharf would have definitely been on our return list but sadly that is not to be. We are so glad we visited when we did. Close by is the Orchard pub, super selection of still ciders (counted 17) and real ales (only sandwiches, pies and pasties for food), even closer is the Cottage pub, a Butcombe brewery pub with all their ales and a good pub food menu.

Fantastic site

We visited this site again last week. It is a fantastic site close to the centre and it our favourite place to visit. It’s a great shame that the council don’t see the benefit of all the visitors to Bristol this site brings. Great friendly staff, I hope they find a new site soon.

A Superb location

Its a sad day, as we have left Baltic Wharf for the last time, as I understand it closes at the end of Dec 2022. Its got the best location for a City break we have been to, with pubs restaurants, places to see and shops all within a reasonable walking distance. I really hope the club find another location in Bristol

Last visit ?

After so many wonderful trips to this site and Bristol it looks like this will be last time. Its such a shame Bristol Council don't appreciate this site is valued by visitors who spend a lot of time and money in the area. Flats for sale all along waterside .with lots more under construction. Its been under threat of closure for years with no money being spent but still people visit.seems the council just don't consider what so many see as an asset. Handy buses and pubs (some better than others) Never know but if builder go bust site might still remain open!!

Excellent

Arrived for 1 night only, knew site was in verge of closing, full credit to the wardens for a clean tidy site, showers, toilets immaculate. Easy access to docks and pub nearby. Lots of roadworks outside, unfortunately trashed a plant pot coming in, however cannot say how accommodating wardens where and helpful, would be nice if the city council allowed the site to stay.
